FM booster

Has anyone put an FM signal booster in their car? I found one for $15 that looks like it will fit where the fog light button would go. My reception keeps breaking up.

I've been having trouble with my reception lately also. However, I have been told in the past that the FM booster's don't do much. If you get it, please let me know how good it works out for you. Test it in an area that you know get shitty reception. Thanks!

I have also been told that fm bosters dont do that much. My friend that owns a car audio shop told me this. Also said you have a good chance of picking up some engine noise with one as well.
